... Speaking only for myself, but it would also be _extremely_ helpful to have that capability in my guiding scope/Guide/ASCOM/EQMOD goto system. Aligning and...
Dear Bill, <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p> </o:p> recently I bought a sextant to learn astronavigation. On...
I noticed an odd thing when I was using Guide 8 while astronomizing last night. Now that we have gone to standard time, Guide is one hour behind my computer...
Hi Tom, I'm also using XP home. Double click the time at the right end of the toolbar, click the Time Zone tab, check the box to adjust for DST changes....
I'm using XP Pro, selected U.T. in Guide 8 and the chart is one hour behind in U.T. The problem has nothing to do with any version of Windows time settings....
I don't recall Guide ever trying to compensate for daylight savings in Version 8 or any of the earlier versions. I always have to manually change the time...
With UT selected, my PC clock reads 10:05, which is correct for my time zone (California). The difference between PST and UT is 8 hours. Chart shows UT as...
My Guide changed over the last Sunday of October and I had to go into the Guide."Strings" settings and change my time default to T=0. This was a problem a year...
Dr. Clay, I opened my strings text file under my Guide 8 "text" folder and I do not see any line that has "T=0", "T=1" in the entire file. I first searched...
Hi Tom.... You are correct: my mistake. Open the small file Guide.txt and you should see the designation. You can change the time default by using the Alt-J...
Hi Tom, all, One small correction: the file 'guide.dat' may, or may not, have a line that reads TOFFSET=1 If it _does_ have that line, remove it. If it...
Hi Ulrich, Hmmm... the only issue I can think of would be that by default, Guide shows unrefracted altitudes. If the discrepancy you see is about an...
Bill, I don't know if Larry send you an email about this issue. The user object does not work. If you enter an object it goes to the wrong place. We look into...
Hi Bill, Guide 8 has never corrected for daylight saving time to my knowledge (now using 7 October 2009 version). I checked, and there was a line TOFFSET- in...
Bill, I did not have TOFFSET in my guide.dat. I added one and it did not seem to make a difference one way or the other. For now I have used the custom time...
As Bill G. corrected me: it is TOFFSET=x You should type this in after opening the dialogue box Alt-J, using the number necessary to either increase or...
Bill, Thanks for giving us this line of code to insert in Guide.txt. My Guide 8 U.T. is reading correctly adding the proper 5 hours to EST that my PC clock is...
Hola; I too have had problems with the time change in the new update on tests of 2009 and only 8.0 GUIDE corrected by reinstalling the update and updated 2008....
Today, when I started-up Guide, the UTC was correct and my local time was off by an hour. I had setup a custom time zone to compensate for the local time...
It appears that you have a space between the "=" sign and the -1. You can also go into Guide.txt and manually change the TOFFSET to the value that you wish, ...
Bill, I've just started having my "First Ever" problem with Guide. I'm using Guide8 on a WinXP Media Laptop. I've used Guide since Guide4, I've not Updated...
How interesting, I just discovered this abend only occurs when the Level-10 is set at 1deg. Level-9 at 2deg or Level-11 at 30mins Guide8 works fine...joe :) ...
This must have something to do with your installation; I am running XP Media on two of our machines here and Guide8 (latest update) is working perfectly in all...
Yup, Dr.Clay, the only time I updated Guide8 after its 02-2002 install was way back in 04-2003. I've seen no reason to do so until now. Maybe it's time if...

Hi Joe, I'd strongly recommend getting the current version. Many bugs have been fixed since then, and many improvements made in how the program works. I...
